Hi all, I'm entering into a 4 year design school and I'll be using lots of processor, memory and graphics intensive programs. My school requires that I buy a laptop and my budget for such is around the $2000 mark.
I need a dual core processor, the faster the better, preferably with a large L2 cache.
200+ Gb hard drive
Dedicated video card, 256mb or better. (which is better, Nvidia or ATI?)
Fast RAM and lots of it
Since I'm doing a lot of graphic design I'd prefer a pretty large screen, with maybe 1920x1200 resolution, smaller is okay. but high res would help
Not sure if you need to know but I'll be using software like 3DS Max, Blender 3D, Maya, Dreamweaver etc.
Thanks so much in advance.
